What you are probably seeing is an INSIDE corner vs. an OUTSIDE corner. Yes an outside corner needs to be metal due to thing hitting it, you dont want it to easily break. An inside corner needs only to be taped because its highly unlikely that when you are hauling in furniture that the leg of a couch is going to strike an inside corner. Hopefully this is the case, tape on an outside corner would be incorrect.
Thanks for the question, Andy Love Ask the Expert.

Anita, the nice thing about drywall and plaster are that they are easily repaired. The only thing you can really do is get a wide pry bar, and try to pop them off. They may even be glued so well you will need to break them. That’s 28 years bad luck if you believe in that sort of thing. You said your house was built in the 70′s, which it should have drywall instead of plaster. You could cut the drywall by using a sharp utility knife and the mirrors will fall off with the drywall. Then you simply screw in new drywall tape, mud and paint. Thanks for the great question, Andy Love Ask the Expert Home Improvement
