The Board of Regents of the University officially approved the acquisition of the LACHMANN COLLECTION on October 17, 1960. A photographic catalogue, The Erich Lachmann Collection of Historical Stringed Instruments (USC Press), was prepared under support of the Allan Hancock Foundation of the University of Southern California.
