There certainly are. The question is whether they're all "available" . . .

Its hard to imagine a "new" complete little Walter set would contain  
anything that wasn't on the 4-CD set from Chess, called "Little Walter
the Chess  
Years 1952-1963".The liner notes read, "These 95 tracks represent all
 the 
available Little Walter recordings on Chess from 1952-1963."
Is there more?

"Complete Little Walter Box Set Being Considered by Hip-O Select!  Scott
Dirks reports that he and his co-authors of the Little Walter  biography
Blues With A Feeling: The Little Walter Story, Ward Gaines and  Tony Glover,
are working on liner notes for a proposed Complete Little  Walter Box Set by
the Hip-O Select label in the near future, with the hope  of capitalizing on
the upcoming film Cadillac Records, in which the Little  Walter character is
featured prominently. The box would contain material  that Little Walter
recorded for the famed Chess Records. The official word  is not out yet so we
can only be hopeful. More information forthcoming as  it becomes
available."
