These images are all taken from a scanned copy of Le Monde de la Mer on the website of the Internet Archive but I learned about it on the website of Zucker Art Books zuckerartbooks.com. I learned about them at the antiquarian book fair held here in November and picked up a copy of their listing of the various vendors which I am working my way through.
