That seat looks about right. I worked in the front office for the Cubs during the 80's and they replaced a number of seats during the off seasons back then. From what I remember they replaced the wood seats in the park with these plastic type seats between, I would say 1986 and 87.
The seat you have was probably replaced in the late 90's and would have been in the ballpark maybe 20 years at best. I doubt he will have any paperwork with them as the Cubs didnt normally do that. They usually sold the seats to one dealer and he broke them out and sold them individually. I know the batch they had back in the 80's were sold to Dan Knoll and he sold them individually but those were the wood variety.
sorry I could not help more
