If they have been doing it continuously since 1937 and they can't show she had a contract to pay royalties in perpetuity and not just a paid spokesperson, where is the case? Also, they filed it as a class action - seriously doubt the class can be certified versus just suing as a normal civil suit. My guess is they are jurisdiction shopping.

The questions would be, if in fact that is her likeness and if they had permission to use her likeness long after her death.
