I recently picked up a 4-disc promo set put out by Stevie's publishing company Jobete Music. It's not new, but nobody has previously mentioned it here on the board. I think it might have a few hard-to-find 45 versions on it, so I'll post the track list. The times are printed, but I am happy to check specific tracks for versions and/or actual times.

Fantastic set! Shame it doesn't feature the single remix of "Get It" with Michael Jackson (which missed the Top 40), but please do share any details you uncover regarding 45 mixes that are included.

On disc 4, these are likely the correct 45 versions/lengths:
Master Blaster (Jammin')
Ribbon In The Sky
Do I Do
I Just Called To Say I Love You
Part Time Lover
Skeletons
With Each Beat Of My Heart
The '60s and early '70s tracks are stereo, so the set does not include the mono single mixes on those.

Solid collection. Looks like they used single edits across the board where available (I had to recreate quite a few for my own collection!), except when a selection was only an LP cut. I presume the runtime of You Haven't Done Nothin' is 3:23, not 2:23? And Blame It on the Sun 3:28, as opposed to 2:28?

Nice find, Aaron! There's currently one on eBay for
85.00. Not sure if I'll place a bid or not.

Yes, those times were typos (copied and pasted from a tracklist I found online). I updated them above.

I found mine for $26, which was the opening bid. It had been listed the week before I won it with no bids (same price). If you really want an original copy, wait for a cheaper one to pop up.

I found "The Wonder of Stevie" 4 disc set several years ago on Amazon for 99¢ plus free prime shipping.
Just a heads up: There's TWO 4-CD promo sets. One is called "The Wonder Of Stevie" and there's another called "The World Of Stevie Wonder." The "The Wonder Of Stevie" contains some 45 versions that are a bit hard-to-find on CD (which Aaron previously mentioned). "The World Of Stevie Wonder" contains a similar playlist featuring the full-length album cuts from the Jobete catalog. Since the sets don't have a UPC and the names are close, some sellers mistake both of the sets—I know this for a fact because this happened FIVE times to a co-worker trying to get the "Wonder of Stevie" set from several sellers on Amazon a few months back!
Luckily I have both sets and for fun, here's the complete list of the track listings (and timings) for the other 4-CD promo so you can compare both sets. Regardless, both of the sets contain a solid track list.
