    What color is the purse? What color is the pen mark?

    I might try goo gone first.......

    I've gotten pen out of my clothes by using hair spray but I don't know how it works on leather. Perhaps try the bottom of the purse to make sure it doesn't stain.

    Hair spray for Biro or rubbing alcohol? I second testing the stuff you decide to use on the bottom or other unobtrusive part, just in case the colour comes off too!

    Hair spray was my idea, too. It works on clothing, but I've never tested it on leather.
