Tokyo publisher BNN has a great series of clip-art pattern books. Each book comes with a CD-ROM of 80-100 hi-res images. The books are basically specimens; each page has a full-bleed color reproduction of one of the images on the disc.
Some of my favorites are Grain, Camouflage, Chiyogami, and 2Tone Vision Warping Patterns!
Hennessey + Ingalls sells the BNN Pattern series in the US.
