White Dwarfs:

Here's a sample of 50 spectroscopically confirmed WDs from Eisenstein et al. (2006): WD list
and here's a list of just the coordinates so you can copy them into the image list tool on SDSS, since we want to know what
these look like so we can filter them out: WD coords
and finally, here are some quick plots showing magnitudes for a sample of 15 WDs: plots
