 Isn't the other difference that the original has gold print on the label and this one has silver?

 Discogs have it listed as an"Unofficial" release made in the USA 1984

As others have pointed out it is a replica of the 1957 British original and no doubt will make the odd appearance at Record Fairs with unscrupulous dealers trying to pass it off as the genuine article.

Buyer beware !

 Bootleg or not, I'd happily buy it (at a bootleg price), since I have zero chance of getting an original

 It is indeed a bootleg. Notice the blurred lettering on some areas of the label (I've actually seen slightly worse copies). I remember this being on sale at record fairs in 1980 for £10 - £12.

 Looking now at the entry I note this is one of those "naughty-naughty" bootleg jobbies that sometimes turn up on this website which I, at first view, took to be a genuine UK EMI product. Seems I've been "sucked in, big time" on this one. Those shameless bootleggers clearly went all-out to make the product appear authentic, but if it's a bootleg, and brazenly offered for sale in a public market, it should be avoided.

 Hi Neil,
I don't agree with you. I added a link showing the original British issue.
My record has a thicker cover, not laminated, without foldovers, and etched numbers in the dead wax..
If you compare closely the two back covers, you'll see a telling difference in the fourth paragraph. The word "States" is printed as the rest of the text on the original; on this issue, the word "States" has been altered on purpose.

 This is NOT an American product! It is indeed British! Click on the label and the rear cover and you'll see for yourselves in the close-up. Clearly at this stage, EMI had simply adapted their 78rpm label design to serve as an LP label. Yes, EMI DID issue very early Presley records, but Decca took over when they acquired the rights to the RCA-Victor product for the UK. I don't think it's a reproduction, it would have stated so somewhere on the label if that had been the case.
