The vertical slats in the seat remind me of a Heron. Otherwise, no idea.

Correct. 1964 Heron Quad Chair, first quad in the world.
Its a heavy beast, there is a sheet metal pan under the seat that 'frames the underside in'.
At some point, they switched to using Riblet chairs and clips until the lift was removed in 2008.
I had the 'treat' working on the old lift in the late '90's, what a headache.
