Why would this be considered a rookie card?

It is his first card as a manager but Wilbert Robinson had cards issued in several sets before 1916, including (but not limited to): N690 (as a two-player card), N172 (five poses), N142, and N300. So I don't think this is his rookie card (but I do like the card).

After years (probably decades) of searching, I'm real excited to finally pick up this one -- the only Hall of Famer in a very rare set.
