I am looking for a large number of images of cigarettes, illicit drugs, alcohol, and gambling for an upcoming study.
Specifically, images of the target items themselves (e.g. an image of burning cigarette or an image of a mug of beer).
Preferably, stimulus sets will have been used in prior research.

Mh, I'm afraid I can't name any picture sets but I would suggest to add pictures of coffee cups. In a study I was involved with, drinking coffee was the most frequent occassion people relapsed into smoking after successfully quiting.
There seems to be such a set for smoking cues, which also includes
tested neutral pictures:
- Gilbert, D. G., & Rabinovich, N. E. (1999). International smoking image
series (with neutral counterparts), version 1.2. Carbondale, Integrative
Neuroscience Laboratory, Department of Psychology, Southern Illinois
University.
For drinking/alcohol there is a specific set called "The
Geneva Appetitive Alcohol Pictures" (GAAP), as described in Billieux et al. (2011). The pictures are avaiable in the Supplementary Material of the Publication on the original publisher's website (http://www.karger.com/Article/FullText/328046).
Stritzke et al. (2004) is another interesting paper about such drinking and smoking cues from what the authors call the "Normative Appetitive Picture System". However, I found no newer information about this system or how you get access to the picture set.
Additionally, you could of course use pictures from the International
Affective Pictures System (IAPS) (Lang et al., 2008), which have been used in lots of different experiments. But you would have to go through the set and see how many of them you can use. You will not be able to use many of them, but a few could be interesting for your project.
You can find a link to send in a request to get access to the IAPS pictures

Thank you everyone for the helpful responses. Please keep the suggestions coming!
Alcohol-related pictures were used in this research:
