The Sumerian writing system did not have an alphabet like modern languages; instead, it used a cuneiform script composed of logograms and syllabic signs.

Therefore, it is not accurate to quantify Sumerian writing with a specific number of letters as in an alphabet.

Did Sumerian writing develop from pictographs to cuneiform to an alphabet?
Sumerian writing used cuneiform (Latin: "wedge-shaped") characters that had developed from pictographs. This system never developed into an alphabet while it was being used to write Sumerian, or most of the other languages that adopted cuneiform writing (e.g., Akkadian and Old Persian). However, a true alphabet of cuneiform symbols was developed by the people of Ugarit to write their language, which was related to Hebrew. (Strictly speaking, Ugaritic cuneiform employed an abjad, which is a term for an alphabetic system that lacks vowels.)
What did the sumerians call their wedge shaped alphabet?
Archaeologists call the Sumerian writing system "cuneiform". We do not know what the Sumerians called it.
Where can you get the Sumerian cuneiform alphabet?
The Sumerian writing system isn't exactly an alphabet. The technical term is "syllabary", because the symbols stand (mostly) for syllables, not individual sounds. A pair of free fonts representing the state of the cuneiform syllabary at the time of the Third Dynasty of Ur (21st century BC), with roughly 500 separate symbols, has been made available by Guillaume Malingue (see related link below).
