I always knew this theater as the Cino Theater, at least into the 1980s. I don’t know when that name was dropped but strangely no information seems to exist online about when it was called that.
This building looks like its built after 1970. AI enhanced image posted.
The Buffalo Theatre opened as early as 1924.
Harper County Journal, June 14, 1945: “V. E. Jackson, Buffalo, became manager of the New Buffalo theater Friday (8), replacing Miss Blanche Gibson, who returned to Cherokee to be associated with theaters there. Jackson will also operate the projector … Mrs. Jackson will be cashier and supervise the ushers. The theater is owned by W. (Walter) P. Shuttee, Cherokee, and W. F. McDowell, Caldwell, Kan.”
The Buffalo Theatre (Tan brick bldg with tile roof) can be spotted on N. Hoy, between Williams and Turner.

I’m sure Buffalo is a pleasant local to live in, but there must be a chair in this theatre for every person in town if seating capacity is 224.
