Default Breaking The Case

Posted By: Aaron

I just recently discovered this site and am not sure if this post is going to be considered blasphemy by some, but here goes...

I'm primarily a collector of vintage sports memorabilia (concentrating mostly on baseball) with a few cards here and there to fit into my display. I'd been looking for the past several months for a "clean" ungraded copy of the '34 Goudey Gehrig #61 (nice colors, well-centered, no major creasing) to add to my Gehrig display and kept coming up empty.

With the recent proliferation of Goudey reprints (described as or otherwise), I decided the only way I was going to get a genuine '34 was to buy a "slabbed" card and bought a PSA 4.

Now, I want to break it out of the case and display it. I don't care about the decrease in value, but don't want to damage the card in the process.

Can someone provide some pointers on how best to do this?

Thanks,
Aaron

P.S. Anyone with a nice example of a '48 Leaf Premium Lou Gehrig, please e-mail me at aaron1050@aol.com.
