The Warner Brothers salary roster for 1937 & 1936, published in “Motion Picture Herald” in 1938

This makes for interesting reading: the Warner Brothers salary roster for 1937 & 1936, published in Motion Picture Herald in 1938. Several people made more money than studio boss, Jack Warner, including Kay Francis. I wonder how he felt about that. Bette Davis’ salary is only mid-range, and Humphrey Bogart didn’t even make the list yet.

    Kay Francis is one of my favorite actresses from that era, so I’m glad she was well compensated. One that I liked a lot was “One Way Passage” with William Powell. Nice ending.
