I don't know if it is. But condition, condition, condition is what really matters. The cover needs to be perfect no beat up edges. Not the smallest scratch can be on the record itself. If there are any marks or scratches, no matter what record you have it will really knock off a lot of worth. You can have the Moody Blue record before Elvis died or a record of That’s all right mama from Sun Records and if you have some scratches or the cover is slightly beat up, you will lose a ton of value.
Sorry I know this wasn't the question you asked. But I hope it helps some.
I know you could email Joe Krein over at Elvis-express and I am sure he would help you out.

I understand. There is a book that has just Elvis records in it that gives the value. If I remember correctly the guys name is Jerry Osburn or Osborne. You can google that and see if you can find the book. Hope that helps.
If you do find out how much it would be worth let us know.

When was King Creole ever in 'Stereo' ? The only strero I know of that RCA released a lot of these pressing in was what they called 'bathroom stereo'. It was a process whereby they double tracked mono to make it sound like strereo. If this is 'Living Strereo' though, and I doubt it, it would be worth a mint !!

I don't know how recent the last record buying guide was published, so I am not sure the current value of your KING CREOLE record... :blush:
But just for your future reference (and anyone else who wasn't aware), there is a new book coming this year from Sean O' Neal on COLLECTING ELVIS PRESLEY. Here is the trailer/news article on it:

It looks like it will be a very comprehensive book for collectors!! (y)
TCB!
