I owned a '64 Spider and never thought about the back window wear, etc. Recently bought a '90 Spider and as I was about to leave with my purchase, the PO handed me a bath towel and demonstrated how he always placed the rolled-up towel across the back window as he folded it, telling me that this would keep the back window crease-free and later crack-free. Made sense to me as the window on the original top was extremely clear and blemish-free. Anybody else do this?

I always use the original Alfa Romeo convertible window protective cover on mine. A little more time to use it, but I feel it helps save the back window. Doesn't offer the extra support a rolled up towel would provide. I may have to try that. A word of warning though, make sure the window and towel is clean and free of any grit, otherwise you may wind up scratching your window and not protecting it.

Its just a canvas type/colored cloth, a little fleece on the window side. Covers the entire back window area with the 'Alfa' Logo in one color smack dab in the center. Its nothing exciting really. I'd post a pic, but its on the window right now and the hardtop is installed. I'll be removing the hard top in a few days to change the rear shocks. If you'd like I'll get a pic. Let me know.

.....'87 Quad had the lil fleece thing you are talking about.....I think its kind of neat myself!

LOL that's what I have. I think its pretty neat as well. The design and use is very simple and easy. (As long as its clean anyway.)
