Was this marque manufactured for a number of years, or only for a short period of time?

I have uncovered two likely candidates, but can not find a photograph of either, so I'll just have to try them in alphabetical sequence.  How about a 1901 Altman, which was a one off homebuilt by Henry J. Altman of Cleveland, Ohio?

I hope I'm not steeling the second candidates to 4popoid...but I guess Aultman, 1901.

It was not produced by any manufacturer. It was a selfbuilt car completed in 1901. The works started in 1900.
