Philippe brought recently to our attention a deck with 36 cards similar to the already known deck called "Finet" (or Nouvel Eteila ou Le petit Necromancien).
All 36 cards are in this post:

The "Finet" should be this deck, as present in a British Museum deck:
**************
I went through the cards and found, that most cards (20) are nearly identical (in the major figures), but flipped from right to left. For instance:
16 cards are different:
four of them are similar
The Finet follows the Etteilla style.
The Finet with a sitting Tristesse follows the style of the 66-cards divination deck 1790
The Finet follows for Prudentia the model of the Etteilla Tarot, the variant of 1797 follows the Minchiate Francesi from c. 1660.
The Finet follows for Prison the Etteilla deck, the variant of 1797 follows the 66-cards divination deck 1790.
