Amazing. Remember when Filofax was really trendy 25-30 years ago… I wonder how long users kept to just one planner. Are we better today with so many choices than we were back then?
Personally, I think it was better before when organisers were purely functional and produced in basic dark neutrals. But that is because of the way I use my organisers. My shoes are also always basic black or brown leather in traditional styles. However,the plain (and dare I say, male-oriented) organisers available 30 years ago would have also meant that people (mainly women) who do like choices and florals and prettiness would have been put off by the basic choices available and may never have gone into paper and ring planning.

Looks like it has been used for the whole time too, unlike my 31 year old Winchester!
