"Decades after its great days have passed, Coney Island still retains a ghostly hold on the American imagination, and Issue No. 12 of Sensations Magazine does much to illuminate the reason why. It is not easy to evoke the combination of grandeur and tawdriness that gives Coney its savor, but Messineo and his fellow editors have assembled a splendid group of archival photographs that do just that ... taken all together, the issue retrieves Coney at its hectic, exhilarating peak; it is an impressive exercise, both of history and of imagination." ~Richard F. Snow, Editor, American Heritage
