The computer side is 15 pin femail D shape connector. The other side has GRB
connectors and one 4pin telephone style port which might be a keyboard port.
$5 shipping if you are in the US. Dirty, but no physical damage is observed.
Not tested and I don't know what system it was used with. See attached
photo.

Of course, the mail system running the list strips out any attachments, but
that cable is the colour video cable for the Rainbow and quite possibly the
Pro series as well.....

Nope, the VAXstation cables have a keyboard and mouse connector, the 'bow
only has the keyboard. Originally the cable would've had a sticky pad on it
that allowed you to stick it to the back of the VR241, there was a position
for it on the back.

Right, the cable I talked has the sticky pad on the monitor side pad. It is
interesting to find out that the pad is still in its original unused shape.

I thought the Rainbow and Pro colour video cables looked the same, but
had different wiring (in that the Green BNC connector on the 'Bow cable
goes ot the pin on the DA15 used for mono video, on the Pro cable it goes
to the pin used for green video).
