THE 1980'S---AND CROTON'S VIDEO CONNECTION

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

Yes indeed...there was once was a time when you rented your videos from places like BlockBuster and....the Video Connection!

Back in the 80's etc., this was Croton's movie rental hub--Video Connection was a franchise with hundreds of locations nationwide---private label products, computerized video rentals, Gold Card Club, and much more.

In the end, a number of issues killed video rental stores----especially Streaming---and Netflix----Redbox also undercut rental stores with $1 kiosks---and by 2015, nearly all regional video‑rental franchises had closed.

But here in Croton, the Video Connection is still fondly remembered and so.....Enjoy some ads and a blast from the past. Click on the images below.
