Vintage US Open Golf program with valuable autograph page..What to do?

I recently acquired a 1970 US Open Golf Tourney program and included inside the program was a page available for in-person autographs. The page was signed by some of the biggest names in golf at the time: Jack Nicklaus; Arnold Palmer; Gary Player; Tony Jacklin (who won the tournament) and a few other golfers..

Looking for advice - do I keep the autograph page intact with the program and for the most part hidden from any display or do I remove the page and frame it with a suitable picture featuring these legendary golfers?

I am not looking to sell but eventually I will and not sure what would bring the most value. So do I keep the autograph page intact with the program or carefully remove it and display separately? Looking for some helpful advise from the experts out there!

Tom

I think it's very tempting to remove the page, but long term I think it's much better to leave the item intact. My advice: do not remove it. If it is just one page, why not get it framed open, and on the opposite, non-signature page put a photo. It'd require a bigger frame, and to be done by someone who knows how to do it right. But I think keeping the page inside the program would be better.
