A miniature theatrical pack of playing cards, Germany? c.1900

This miniature pack of cards, size 33 x 24 mm. has aces with what seem to be a theatrical theme and court cards in historic costumes with old, castle like features in the background. The pack consists of 32 cards printed in simple colour lithography on thin cheap card. The cards are badly cut indicating a cheaply made product. The back of the cards has a pattern of blue horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines. It came in a simple cardboard box which looks original but has no decoration. The cards were presumably made in Germany and there is no indication of the maker, but they seem to have been made to imitate a similar miniature pack made by C.L.Wüst. as they are the same in style and theme.
