Good analogy. I don't think the adhering tinted cling wraps were available then but could be wrong. Advantage to the metal type was the window could be open. I never saw anything really thin that would work but they did have shaded celluloid strips and sheets. Those were much thicker and as I recall tore easily so somewhat delicate. Believe Packard offered a narrow celluloid strip that was applied across the top of windshield. No idea how it was held on. I suppose something like that could have been used for a window sun shield too but I doubt it would be as durable as the metal.

My Dad had a 55 Pontiac station wagon with AC, the ones he
put in were on a wooden shade roller.

I remember those. Think they had a little clip like device or maybe a magnet to hold the bottom to the window molding when extended. If you brushed against the clip or somehow dislodged it the shade snapped back up.
Those were the good old days. Other than 1000 watt stereos that can vibrate house windows as you drive by todays cars don't have near the fun accessories we got to play with.
