..rory....hey...except for sheer collection purposes, you don't need the runyan book.....considering that you have the three you mention. ...the newest hardcover one (shaap? forget the name) is more than enough information, and all are better written than the runyon one, which is in the old hardboiled-with-a-gooey-sentimental style that runyon and his contemporaries (such as mark hellinger) affected at the time.
