You’ve heard of a little free library, but what about a little free video rental store?

Talk about nostalgia; a homeowner in Edmonton’s Parkview neighbourhood has created their own Blockbuster video library full of DVDs.

Based on the little free library model, the video library encourages people to “leave a video, take a video.”

The library is painted in traditional Blockbuster blue and yellow, with the company logo on the side.

Most Blockbuster stores across Canada and the U.S. and around the world closed in 2010 when the company ended up in bankruptcy court.
