Would there have been an ad for this model? I thought the 1010 was the entry-level Convertible at that time.

nope they did not...

the 1010 did not grace any ads that I am aware of. At the time(1968) the 1120 DAM was the ad cleaner of choice, it was Hoover's 60th Anniversary model.
I know of only one ad that featured the 1060 Convertible.

It sold like hotcakes so it really did not need any advertising. The Convertible line of cleaners sold so well that the Hoover advertising of the time seems a bit "soft". I think that they pushed their other appliances much harder. They really wanted to break out in the late 1960's product for product with other manufacturers to have a more complete line of appliances. It was a short lived venture in the end, but they made some fantastic cleaners during this time.
