44. BU, sc.r.a.pbook 13: Motion Picture Daily, January 18, 1937. Finler, p. 244. There is a discrepancy between the Motion Picture Daily's reporting of the star's 1935 income and a Warner Bros. internal accounting sheet, which claims that between 1931, when she first signed on at Warners, and late 1936, the studio paid Davis $74,941.67 while working and $71,583.33 while not working (which is to say, while she wasn't clocking in on a particular film), for a total of $146,525.00, or about $30,000 per year. Still, Davis clearly earned less for herself than she earned for the brothers Warner.
