By any chance is any one aware of a website, book, paper, etc. or combinations 
of those sources that show plots of different distributions?

After reading a pretty good whitepaper I became aware of the benefit of I the 
benefit of doing Q-Q plots and histograms to help assess a distribution.   The 
whitepaper is called:
"Univariate Analysis and Normality Test Using SAS, Stata, and SPSS*" , © 
2002-2008 The Trustees of Indiana University Univariate Analysis and Normality 
Test: 1, Hun Myoung Park
 
Unfortunately the white paper does not provide an extensive amount of example 
distributions plotted using Q-Q plots and histograms, so I am curious if there 
is a "portfolio"-type  website or other whitepaper shows examples of various 
types of distributions. 

It would be helpful to see a bunch of Q-Q plots and their associated histograms 
to get an idea of how the distribution looks in comparison against the 
Gaussian. 

I think seeing the plot really helps. 

Thank you for any insights.
