From what I have seen over the many years. These 1888 scrapps, majority are found in Victorian period scrapbooks. They are mounted onto the albums pages either by using water/flour homemade paste method or wood glue. If they are glued in using the homemade glue they soak off without issue and with no stains.
Typically these are glue in using the wood glue method and leaves a stain on back and sometimes soaks through to the front and leave a light stain on front.
If done right by taking the time these shouldn’t be an issue to remove off the page. Since these are attached to the page using wood glue...I am have them professionally removed. Best way to tell what the task will be. Is to start with the one that is damaged “ the players head” and go from there.
