Dont know about 60/61. 10EE taper attachments came in three varieties: 1939-1940, wartime, and later. 1939-1940 have different mounting holes on the saddle, different offset for the shoe and the bridge sticks up and does not allow installation of the longer cross slide with dovetail. Wartime models are a newer design, but do not have the micrometer for angular adjustment, and you can install the longer cross slide. The later model is fully compatible with the wartime model but has the micrometer found on the 1939-1940 model.

I have a late 1944 round dial which I'd assume is a war time. And I have no issues with "original equipment". With access to other lathes, a 7" shaper and cnc mills. So custom parts/adapters where needed can be fabricated within reason. But making a mistake in attempting to meld completely incompatible systems is an issue.
Planned primary use definitely requires a taper attachment. Series 60 & 61 attachments seem typically available. Have yet to see a 10EE specific listing. Outfitting a micrometer is a prerequisite as Id be cutting and precision grinding tapers. So ideally a late model square dial 10EE w/ micrometer taper attachment is what I'm looking for.

As far as I know, the vernier (aka micrometer) adjuster for the taper attachment (TA) will fit on a round-dial TA.
If you look at square-dial parts sheet 113, any part with a number under about EE-2400 are round-dial hold overs. Harry Bloom detailed making a vernier adjuster in his Wreck thread. There are other discussions as well.

I haven't looked at Harry Bloom's taper attachment in a while micrometer in a while, it is probably better explained.
Here are other options. The first link has the casting specs. and gearing information, but I didn't give the specs for the dial, but I could.
I haven't watched the u-tube link.

Monarch 10ee taper attachment adjuster micrometer specifications to build your own
This thread is to give anyone with a mill capabilities with the measurements to fabricate their own. There will be repeated information and its not professionally drawn. I will be adding photos and information throughout the day. When I'm finished I'll say complete. At that point if I have...
