Shawn,
You can borrow my copy of the book to scan from if you want - but you must promise not to make it all icky with your sticky flaneur fingers.
There may still be a copy of the hardcover at BMV at Yonge and Eglinton ( n.e. corner ) where I bought mine. They have another branch next to the World's Biggest Bookstore.
It has a turquoise cover, costs about $24, and is a catalogue of a U.S. museum's collection of Oldenberg's drawings ( I forget which one ).

Later:
"Claes Oldenburg Drawings in the Whitney Museum of American Art" ( 2002 ) by Janie C.Lee
Includes images of:
* Proposed Colossal underground monument - Drainpipe, 1967.
* Proposed Colossal monument for Toronto - drainpipe, View from Lake, 1966.
* Base of a Colossal drainpipe Monument, Toronto, with Waterfall, 1967.
* Soft Drainpipe ( drawn for catalogue of Dine-Oldenburg-Segal group show at the AGO, 1966.

Thanks Babel. I'm clean, mostly. I'll be quick about the borrowing too.

How do I get the book to you? Or you could come to my ... ahem ... place of employment to pick it up ( I'll give you the guided tour ) if you want?
