This is a little weekend project I've been thinking about for a while now and I turn to you, Dear Reader, for a little help. I bought this 1971 Billy Martin graded card a little while ago for dirt cheap:
As you can see, it's graded a "7"...a rating like that is okay, but not too great...the card is also sort of disrupting my 1971 Topps set organization and so that plastic case has got to go.
So here's what I'm going to try to do...get the card out of the plastic slab without destroying it. I'm going to film the experiment this weekend but before that does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this?

Card is in tip top condition, BTW.
