I just picked up this Canadian Victor of "British Troops Passing Through
Boulogne," a descriptive record from 1914.

At the end of the record, as the troops march off into the distance, their
singing and footfalls "fade" very smoothly, much like a board fade of today.
This strikes me as unusual in the acoustic era. Are there other examples of
fadeouts at the ends of acoustic records?
