Sorry, but your figures are out-dated. Another alternate take of one of his songs was discovered in recent years, making a total of 42 recordings.
If you only possess 41 recordings, you do NOT have his complete recordings:
"Including the material that never saw issuance on 78's, there are 29 compositions and alternate versions of nearly half of them. Including the recent discovery of a previously unknown alternate take of one of Johnson's recordings, a total of 42 recordings remain to this day"
