This was an adapter for old RF tvs that were mostly in use in the 80s and earlier. They were meant for use with an antenna. By the 90s coax and later RCA (composite) was the standard on most cheaper TVs. You'd probably see S-video or component video on higher end TVs. SCART, on the other hand, was completely unknown in the US.

Kinda weird that having not thought about SCART for years it's come up three times in conversation today. My first taste of 1080p was over SCART. Good times.

This reminds me of when I asked my parents "what's an 8-track?"
