The Mercury Mystery edition of A Man Named Thin lists a bibliography of the short story collections up to that point:

The Continental Op, 1945: Fly Paper Death on Pine Street Zigzags of Treachery The Farewell Murder

Hammett Homicides, 1946: The House in Turk Street The Girl with the Silver Eyes Night Shots The Main Death Two Sharp Knives Ruffian's Wife

Dead Yellow Women, 1947: Dead Yellow Women The Golden Horseshoe House Dick Who Killed Bob Teal? The Green Elephant The Hairy One

A Man Called Thin, 1962: A Man Called Thin Wages of Crime The Gatewood Caper The Barber and His Wife Itchy the Debonair The Second-Story Angel In the Morgue When Luck's Running Good

So there are considerably more than 20. And there are a few others that aren't here, right?
