Default I can't delete an image in excel workbook

I have been given this excel workbook to fix. The workbook has 12
worksheets (one for each month). In the top, left-hand corner of each
worksheet is an image. My mission is to delete this image on each of
the 12 worksheets - but I can't do it.

It appears to me that there are hundreds of images stacked on each
sheet. I can select the image. I can move the image. I can resize
the image. I can delete the image. But what ever I try, there seems to
be another image underneath it!! I have sat for up to 30 minutes
trying to delete one image after the other to get to the bottom of the
pile, but there is no end. Also, as my computer is processing my
command (the delete for example) the image appears to jiggle, for
seconds, as though it is processing through hundreds of stacked images.

Is my theory of stacked images correct? If so, is there a way to
select all the images at once and delete them in one step (I have tried
to select the area by dragging my mouse across it, but I only appear to
be selecting the cells beneath the image, not the image(s)
it(them)selves)?

When I look at the image properties, I see nothing of any help. I am
quite experienced with excel but I have never seen anything like this.
Has anyone had any experience with this crazy situation?

Thank you in advance for your suggestions,
L
