The note reads: "This is a complimentary copy of the fanzine "Nome." Happy reading." Some fans sent their fanworks to Roddenberry for a variety of reasons. Some fans hoped that the Roddenberrys would respond in some way (which he did as per a letter included in v.2 n.10), wanted to convey their pride in their creations, and wanted to honor the man who was their their inspiration. This practice was seen as a courtesy, not a requirement.
