Oil stain on leather

From: Simon Moore <*simon.moore*> Date: Monday, June 23, 2003 · simon.moore

I need advice on how to remove an olive oil stain from a red leather
handbag so that the red dye is unaffected and that no 'haloes' are
left on the leather surface after treatment.  Any advice would be
much appreciated.
