Default Removing glue from 1956 Topps FB

I inherited 65 -1956 Topps Football cards
Unfortunately all of them were glued to an album or something.
They all have paper and glue attached to the back.
Has anyone ever had success trying to remove the paper . Can this be done safely without destroying the cards.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
John P

Q-tip and water and slowly dab it on a gently rub it off. Glue back then is very water soluble.

+1. I do the same thing but I suggest warm, distilled water. And rub very, very gently. Take your time. Let the water soak into the glue a little bit.

Make sure the first few tries are the least valuable cards, and above all BE PATIENT! I have a couple ruined Mantles because I wasn't patient.

I got this card from it's original owner's grandson in the big (for me) Trucker Boy find from many years ago. It had a dime sized glue remnant stuck in the middle of the back. I used the aforementioned method on it. There are still a few specs of the glue left, which I didn't care about.
'This is the 2nd time I have owned the card.
