Barblyn,
my pair of LLs which I bought new in the UK at start of 1961 have serial numbers 141xx and were made in late 1960 so your instrument almost certainly would date from 1961.

I don't know how different the Classic was from the LL, certainly appearance wise they looked almost identical, and the bores were I think the same, but never analysed the tonehole positions / dimensions to compare them.

I don't recall seeing the Classic model sold in the UK although over the years I have worked on a few, but always imports from the USA.
Certainly Bill Lewington who was the main agent fro Leblanc in the UK didn't have those in his stock during the early 60s when I was a regular caller at his shop.
