It was a very common thing then to collect these pictures, which came with cigarettes.
That should be german cigarette cards. It says there are 240 small and 120 big cards. You can collect and trade them.
These are trading cards with motifs from battles and soldiers of a ~400 year time span?
I see the Franco-Prussian War, Schmalkaldic War, the Liberation War against Napoleon and so on.
In addition to the other answers, this collection seems to be from 1934.
