Where to find prints from Georges Redon?

A friend is looking for prints of a series of works by Georges Redon. She is not looking for Biscuits Brun, which seems to be his most popular work. What she does want is described inside.
I'll just quote here: There is one, with a little girl reading the paper, that has the inscription les affaires sont les affaires, and another, with a woman washing a baby underneath a shower, called l'eau n'est pas bonne a' autre chose. Those are the two I want the most. There is also la poule mange les escargots, pour flaire aux hommes c'est du travail, and La Maceleine.
She would, of course, be most grateful for any help locating these.

Response by poster: Iconomy, you get some cookies and booze! I also found la poule mange les escargots here.

Yay for cookies and booze! I can't believe you found that one. What is that hen doing? Is that kid naked from the waist down? Where are the escargots? So many questions... ;)

Response by poster: Ha! I have no idea. Looking more closely . . . I think there is a snail in the boy's butt, and the hen is about to eat it?
I've found more, but none so strange as these! Especially the second one. That second one is messed up.
Google.fr and ebay.fr belched up tons of stuff, but it may be hard to purchase from them because they are, you know, French. There's this and the big finds: these ("Look, doggie, there's a hedgehog! Now I will show you my wee privates!" and "Helping little brother home from the pub again!") and this (I will not speculate) and this (last on page).
Still haven't found the other most wanted one, though. It's been fun looking, even if asking on AskMe made me partially answer the question.

Response by poster: Oh! The "these" link up there is MNSFW. Lots of babies tickling a naked woman's butt with some grass.
