SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application To Withdraw From Listing 
and Registration; (Myers Industries, Inc., Common Stock, no par Value) 
From the American Stock Exchange LLC File No. 1-8524

November 15, 2001.
    Myers Industries, Inc., an Ohio corporation (``Issuer''), has filed 
an application with the Securities and Exchange Commission 
(``Commission''), pursuant to section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 12d2-2(d) hereunder,\2\ to withdraw 
its Common Stock, no par value (``Security''), from listing and 
registration on the American Stock Exchange LLC (``Amex'' or 
``Exchange'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78l(d).
    \2\ 17 CFR 204.12d2-2(d).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Issuer stated in its application that it has met the 
requirements of Amex Rule 18 by complying with all applicable laws in 
effect in the State of Ohio, in which it is incorporated, and with the 
Amex's rules governing an issuer's voluntary withdrawal of a security 
from listing and registration. The Amex has in turn informed the Issuer 
that it does not object to the proposed withdrawal of the Issuer's 
Security from listing and registration on the Exchange.
    The Board of Trustees (``Board'') of the Issuer approved a 
resolution on September 19, 2000 to withdraw the Issuer's Security from 
listing on the Amex and to list such Security on the New York Stock 
Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE''), effective May 1, 2001. In making the 
decision to withdraw its Security from the Amex, the Board considered 
the potential to increase institutional interest and the benefit to its 
capital structure by listing on the NYSE. The Issuer stated that 
trading in the Security on the Amex ceased on April 30, 2001, and 
trading in the Security began on the NYSE at the opening of business on 
May 1, 2001.
    The Issuer's application relates solely to the withdrawal of the 
Security from listing and registration on the Amex and shall have no 
effect upon the Security's continued listing and registration on the 
NYSE under section 12(b) of the Act.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78l(b).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Any interested person may, on or before December 10, 2001, submit 
by letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 
450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, DC 20549-0609, facts bearing upon 
whether the application has been made in accordance with the rules of 
the Amex and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the Commission 
for the protection of investors. The Commission, based on the 
information submitted to it, will issue an order granting the 
application after the date mentioned above, unless the Commission 
determines to order a hearing on the matter.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, 
pursuant to delegated authority.\4\
