They are probably Modulex bricks made by lego. The following is from a Google
search.
MODULEX Company founded in 1963 by the LEGO company. Modulex is for many
LEGO-fans synonymous to miniature LEGO bricks (size of a 2x4 brick: 2.0x1.0x0.5
cm). The miniature bricks have letters on them allowing a company to change the
text on signs easily, later Modulex also creates permanent signs to the
customer's preferences. Today Modulex, as system, is widely used for lettering
boards, signs etc. in many companies worldwide.
