any site to download all album ( bundle packagake)

[@craftystax]

There is no one place to download these images - they are public domain scans from old books & pictures. It will take some work to get them ready for print on demand or creating digital work!

Can one sell this artwork on a site like foap?

[@craftystax]

I am not familiar with FOAP specifically (I know what it is but have not sold there). However, generally speaking public domain means that you can do whatever you want it legally. I would check with FOAP specifically to ask them-if you are cleaning up the files, that might be an option. Selling them "as is" is generally not a productive venture, since anyone can find them for free if they look hard enough.
