Just my opinion, but I definately would not include those last three on a list 
of "Classic" cocktails.

Some other possible additions:

Champagne Cocktail, Clover Club, Commodore, Derby, French 75, Jack Rose, Kir 
Royale, Mai Tai (yeah, I know, you said no tropical drinks), Mint Julep, 
Negroni, Pimm's Cup, Planters Punch, Ramos Gin Fizz, Sidecar, Twentieth 
Century Cocktail, Vesper, Whiskey Sour.
