MacOsProduct(product='041-88800', name=None, build='18E2034', version='10.14.4')
MacOsProduct(product='041-90855', name=None, build='17F66a', version='10.13.5')

For Downloading each one you just download their packages as you would for any other product:

➜  apple-catalog git:(master) ✗ applecatalog macos products download 071-59953 ~/Downloads/macos
2021-07-08 10:48:27 DoronZ.local root[21530] DEBUG downloading: UpdateBrain.zip
100%|██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████| 2.75M/2.75M [00:00<00:00, 44.7MiB/s]
2021-07-08 10:48:27 DoronZ.local root[21530] DEBUG downloading: Info.plist
...

For creating an installation from these files you can now simply:

sudo installer -pkg /path/to/InstallAssistant.pkg -target /

This should create an Install macOS XXXXXX.app application at your /Applications folder. If you wish to make a bootable device from this installation you can use the following official guidelines:
