Some of these players are exceedingly scarce, but you gotta dream, right?
Here is the list:

Elton Chamberlain
Ed Stein
Jay Hughes
Red Donahue
Walter Thornton
Chick (Chic) Fraser
Weldon Henley
Jake Weimer
Stoney McGlynn
Ed Karger
Johnny Lush
Rube Vickers
Leonard (King) Cole
Thomas L. Hughes AKA Salida Tom Hughes (Highlanders)
Carl Cashion
Frank Allen
Claude Hendrix
Arthur (Davie) Davenport
Please let me know if you can provide a lead to any of them.
Thanks!

Well, thanks to Jim Stinson, Chic Fraser is now gone from the list of vintage no-hit pitchers from my dream want list!
Chick (Chic) Fraser threw a no-hitter for the Philadelphia Phillies in 1903. Fraser was a scout for the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1934 when this Brooklyn Dodgers banquet menu was signed. The event took place in Long Island just as the 1934 baseball season was just beginning. One off the list, with 18 more to go...
Take a look for yourself. Note that HOF Hack Wilson was also in attendance and signed the banquet program as well.
