I've used very skinny piano wire to remove glued emblems with good success.....Wrap the ends around dowels so you don't cut yourself though. Then stand over the frame and use a back & forth motion with moderate down pressure. Make sure you're pulling the cable far enough around the tube so you don't mess up the edges of the emblem! A bit of heat from a hair dryer would probably help too. Direct the air down the headtube with the fork removed to heat the back side of the emblem....Good luck!
*And wear safety goggles in case the wire snaps! Safety first....
