Ink or marker from the leather?

I'd like to clean it up a bit as well. Thanks.

A grinder and shoe polish. There is no way. I even contacted the guy who removes multiple signatures on autographed baseballs. Too much for him and his special chemicals as well. I think I'll try a tattoo be-gone service next.

I did and came up with some ideas...I just wanted to see if there was a "new and improved method".

I tried Mr. Clean Magic Eraser with limited success. Way too much work and mess. I will be trying super fine sand paper next.
