Without actually listing all the titles, GDW produced:

Books 0-8
Supplements 1-13
Adventures 1-13
Double Adventures 1-6
Aliens 1-8
JTAS 1-24

Large format booklets: Atlas of the Imperium
                       The Spinward Marches Campaign
                       Alien Realms

Books: The Traveller Book (rules, hard and soft cover versions)
       The Traveller Adventure

Boxed Sets: Tarsus
            Belt Strike

Games: Mayday
       Snapshot
       Azhanti High Lightning
       Invasion Earth
       Fifth Frontier War

Miniatures Rules: Striker

A few other exotic bits from GDW exist, such as the "Map of the Imperium"
they used to give away at cons, an Aliens handout, and a free booklet called
"Introduction to Traveller", plus various maps of the Spinward Marches.

The rules exist in the following main versions:

     Traveller <three booklets in box>
     Deluxe Traveller <five booklets, including "The Imperial Fringe" adventure
                       only found in this set>
     Starter Traveller <Two 8 1/2 by 11 booklets plus versions of the double
                        adventures "Shadows" and "Mission on Mithril">
     The Traveller Book

Various foreign language versions exist as well.  I'm very favorably impressed
with the choice of materials in the German edition.

Supplements by other companies (but not their magazines) can be found listed
in "Heroic Worlds" by Lawrence Schick, still in print as far as I know.  The
publisher is Prometheus Press, and I got mine on special order from the local
Walden Books, so it can't be too hard to find.

All this discussion of Classic Traveller caused me to restack my collection
a couple of days ago, so it's all fresh in my mind at the moment. (-:
