WORDPLAY POST #191
Here are some palindromes, mostly concocted recently. Some of these palindromic phrases had first been displayed in one of our blogposts in 2017.

INTRODUCTORY CONCLUSION: The Tourists' Palindromic Guides,
and
2) MAGICAL PALINDROMES: The specifics of the development of magical palindromes and an initial listing of examples can be found on this blogpost dating from February 2017.
