A few weeks ago there was a serious fire in our apartment block which caused a lot of damage. One of our friend's apartment was almost completely gutted. She has managed to recover a few photographs, and has asked me if I can help her to scan and restore these so that she can have some new prints.
Here's the problem - some of the prints are stuck to broken glass - like this;

Using photoshop to clone out the line of broken glass is quite difficult. Is there a good way to remove the print from the glass, without causing more damage? It would then be much easier to scan and restore, and give her some prints.
Thanks in advance for any help and advice.
