Probably the Sonny Bono Artistic Rights Law, or whatever the offical name is.

Your kidding, right? Try to use Humphrey Bogarts face to sell something and watch what happens.

EPE has been successful at controlling anything related to Elvis including his likeness. You will wind up in court if you try to circumvent them.
