The Way to Sell Corsets

The Way To Sell Peep Show Views

A corset maker -- for those of you who don&apos;t know what that it, it was a tight of highly reinforced girdle which gave the wearer an &apos;hourglass&apos; figure -- has her model come in and wear one of her wears. The well-dressed customers enter and examine the corset on a mannequin.

It has little to do with selling corsets, of course. It was a racy little film, almost certainly made for American Mutoscope &amp; Biograph&apos;s peepshow machine, and it was intended for the men in the audience. Today, of course, we have major motion pictures in which female superheroes like Wonder Wonder wearing bustieres.

It&apos;s another example of what was pornography for the American market.
