Front seat identity

When I bought my 1929 Chummy it came with three front seats, two were reproduction steel seat shells and the other was the one shown. Can anyone identify it for me?

That looks rather like the passenger's seat that was in my 1936 AVJ van- the upholstery pattern is different, but the basic folding assembly looks the same - or very similar. It fitted into a wooden tray which was mounted on the standard hinges above the battery box.
I assumed the van came as standard with just a driver's seat and the tray, and this seat was probably an option, though whether factory, dealer or after-market, I don't know.

very similar to Topolino seats too...
