What the Butler Saw

 
Wikipedia: What the Butler Saw (mutoscope)

What the Butler Saw was a mutoscope reel, and an early example of softcore pornographic films. It depicted a scene of a woman partially undressing, as if "the butler" was watching her through a keyhole. It was viewed by depositing a coin in a freestanding viewing machine, which then ran the presentation. The title of this feature became widely used in Britain as a generic term for devices and movies of this kind.
