Most  important  of  all  is  the  fact  that  for  each  new  ballet-pantomime  created  at  the  Paris  Opera  during  the  July  Monarchy,  a  new  score  was  produced.  The  reason  for  this  is  simple:  these  ballet-pantomimes  told  stories  —  elaborate  ones  —  and  music  was  considered  an  indispensable  tool  in  getting  them  across  to  the  audience.  Well,  ,  music  had  to  be  newly  created  to  fit  each  story.  Music  tailor-made  for  each  new  ballet-pantomime,  however,  was  only  one  weapon  in  the  Opera's  explanatory  arsenal.  And    was  the  ballet-pantomime  libretto,  a  printed  booklet  of  fifteen  to  forty  pages  in  length,  which  was  sold  in  the  Operas  lobby  (like  the  opera  libretto),  and  which  laid  out  the  plot  in  painstaking  detail,  scene  by  scene.  Critics  also  took  it  upon  themselves  to  recount  the  plots  (of  both  ballet-pantomimes  and  operas)  in  their    of  premieres.  So  did  the  publishers  of  souvenir  albums,  which  also  featured  pictures  of  famous    and  of  scenes  from  favorite  ballet-pantomimes  and  operas.
