Need suggestions on cleaning a canvas with leather trim large saddle bag.

The bag in question accompanied a barn find 1952 Hetchins. It appears to have mold residue and is generally very dirty and somewhat stiff. On the other hand, it seems in quite good condition.

So how can I do a thorough cleaning on the canvas while not damaging the leather?
