Phil Temple's Magic Set Collector's Newsletter was a magic periodical dedicated to collectors and historians published by Phil Temple.

It started out as a monthly, then became bimonthly with third issue (Vol 1. No 3).

It ceased publication after eight years and fifty issues. The final number, containing the editor's farewell, two articles and a "master index," appeared in December 2003.[1]

It seldom made money, but was a "labor of love" for Temple. At the time he had one of the largest magic set collection in the United States with 1250 sets.[2]
