Chapter 4 of MASS (the book) is a pretty comprehensive set of examples, 
but given that there are lots of plots associated with e.g. multivariate 
analysis (try chapter 11 of MASS) and time series (try chapter 14 of MASS) 
the scope is enormous.

It looks like a barplot to me.

There is an example of that in the MASS package script ch04.R
The means to do it are described in `An Introduction to R' (and 
elsewhere).
