Vase with "Old Bogey Man" pattern ca. 1867 Christopher Dresser This vase shows Christopher Dressers prolific work on behalf of Minton, the largest industrial manufacturer of ceramics in Victorian England.

Indeed, "Old Bogey" was used as a term to refer to Satan, and could be found in the illustration of Eliphas Lévis book, Dogme et Rituel de la Haute Magie (1855).
