Summary
As one of Omaha's earliest ramp garages, the Capitol Garage was one of the initial automobile rental businesses in Omaha. As it developed, the company became a Hertz franchise and was involved in organizing that company's national advertising campaigns. Thus, in addition to representing the beginning of the automobile rental business in Omaha, Capitol Garage also represents the nationalization of the car rental business through the development of franchises in various cities across America and national marketing campaigns.
