You may not have to use intense heat. Try an iron with a dishcloth or something similar between the iron and the paper. I used to remove mailing labels from Sports Illustrated covers using this method. The glue would soften just enough to peel the label off. It did leave marks on the paper, so there was no chance that anyone could pass one off as a newsstand copy, but I thought they looked better than with that big paper label.

These days though, they have a blank white spot on the cover where they print the address information. No getting that off.
