Woody Smith was primarily a third baseman for a substantial minor league playing career which lasted from 1946 through 1969. He also managed in the minors from 1969 to 1981 (with some gaps). Each of the teams he managed in his first four seasons became league champions.

The first photo shows him in a Kansas City Blues uniform, and it's from the Syracuse Post-Standard of May 24, 1954. It was published just after he had been acquired by the Syracuse Chiefs.

I've added his 1981 TCMA Chattanooga Lookouts card, which shows him as manager of that team.
