Provincetown locals and visitors now have the chance to be kind and rewind.
A repurposed newspaper dispenser emblazoned with the Blockbuster logo stands outside the Stop & Shop on Shank Painter Road, packed with DVDs and VHS tapes for the taking. It’s one of dozens of Free Blockbuster “franchises” around the country, honoring the video rental chain that shuttered most of its physical locations in the 2010s.
Anthony Gelsomino, who moved to Provincetown in 2020, erected the Free Blockbuster box in February. He learned about Free Blockbuster when he visited his friend Brian Morrison — who started the project in Los Angeles in 2019 — and there was a stand stocked with videos in front of his apartment.
