As you point out, all are constructed of a nylon textile material and contain calendar/planning inserts made of paper. The # 5000-04 L1 Planner is a 5" x 7" trifold cover holding three independent, staple-bound, blank paper goods which have been slipped into interior pockets: a telephone/address book, a monthly engagement calendar book, and a note pad. There are also inside pockets designed to hold credit cards and the like, plus, on the exterior, one zippered pocket and a fold-out flap with additional pockets. The article is secured by hook-and-loop type closures. The # 5000-11 L3 Planner is a 7" x 9" bifold cover holding a slip-in note pad and a slip-in, spiral-bound "planning folio" (engagement calendar book).

The # 5000-44 L2 Planner is a looseleaf book consisting of a zippered 6" x 9" fabric cover that contains a permanently mounted metal six-ring binder holding numerous paper pages. The essentially blank, variously captioned pages are divided into several sections (e.g., planning calendar, telephone/address directory, projects, notes, finances, etc.), which together are designed to help the user organize his or her activities. The interior of the cover also features some storage pockets, one of which has a zipper closure. The # 5000-07 L4 Trapper is a larger (11 1/2" x 13") looseleaf book, with zipper closure, metal ring binder and storage pockets. Its inserts consist of student calendar and class schedule pages as well as some lined notebook paper. This article also features dual textile carrying handles.
