This theatre was a duplicate to the Cinema Mayflower located on NW 23rd St., The architects were Hill, Sorey and Hill and the theatre was done in a Streamline Moderne theme.

Both the Bison and Mayflower theatres were built using the same blueprint floor plan, but the Bison's dominant decor was buffalo/Southwestern styling, while the Mayflower held a nautical/sailing ship theme.

Vintage image of the Bison Theatre shown on this site is erroniously labelled as the one in Oklahoma City, when it it actually the Bison Theatre located in Shawnee, OK.

I passed by this building today at 23rd and Lottie. I suspect it may be the Bison. Opinions?

Yes roadsideok, your nice photo is that of the former Bison Theatre. Fake rock facade was added during the early 1970's when this building was used as a nightclub/disco.
