I also have another old team panoramic photo still on its original mount and the photo looks just fine.

That is a legitimate point, but all mounted photos (ala cabinet cards) had the photo pasted on and there is rarely any damage from that. And most damaged would have happened by now.
If the photo was pasted later on to something, I think removal would be a legitimate idea. However, the backing is original to it, I'd leave it as is.
P.s., it's an grade A photo.
