Feeling rather bored and impish, I suggest to you a paint scraper. Sorry,
not much help.
What about holding the frame, photo side down, high above a steam source,
tea kettle for instance and see if it can't be gently coaxed into releasing?
That's my second thought.

I'd ask the client which was the least important, then soak it in water.
Hopefully the emulsion will separate from the glass rather than the paper.
If so, on with the rest.

I'm doing some photo restorations for a client and have been given
several photos that were mounted in frames for many years without the
benefit of a mat to prevent the photograph itself from coming in contact
with the glass. Now parts of the photo are stuck to the glass. I'd like
to be able to scan them without having to scan through the glass.
Anyone have experience in removing photos in this condition? Is there
any hope?
