This Statement relates to the shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") of Mace Security International, Inc.  The address of Issuer’s principal officers is 1000 Crawford Place, Suite 400, Mt. Laurel, NJ 08054.


Item 2.

Identity and Background


This statement is filed on behalf of all persons and entities (the Reporting Persons), herein referred to as “Ancora” or “Ancora Group”.  Participants in the Ancora Group include Ancora Capital, an entity incorporated under the laws of the state of Ohio; Ancora Securities Inc, the main subsidiary of Ancora Capital incorporated in the state of Nevada; Ancora Advisors LLC, a Nevada limited liability company; Ancora Trust, the master trust for the Ancora Mutual Funds; Ancora Foundation, a private foundation incorporated in the state of Ohio; Merlin Partners, an investment limited partnership registered in Delaware; various owners and employees of the aforementioned entities. The Ancora Group is located at One Chagrin Highlands, 2000 Auburn Drive, Suite 300, Cleveland, Ohio 44122.


Ancora Securities Inc is registered as a broker/dealer with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD). Ancora Advisors LLC is registered as an investment advisor with the SEC under the Investment Advisors Act, as amended. The Ancora Trust, which includes Ancora Income Fund, Ancora Equity Fund, Ancora Special Opportunity Fund, Ancora Homeland Security Fund and Ancora Bancshares, are registered with the SEC as investment companies under the Investment Company Act, as amended. Mr. Richard Barone is the controlling shareholder of Ancora Capital, controls 31% of Ancora Advisors, owns approximately 15% of Merlin Partners, and is Chairman of and has an ownership interest in the various Ancora Funds.


Ancora Advisors LLC has the power to dispose of the shares owned by the investment clients for which it acts as advisor, including Merlin Partners, for which it is also the General Partner, and the Ancora Mutual Funds. Ancora Advisors disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein. Ancora Securities Inc acts as the agent for its various clients and has neither the power to vote nor the power to dispose of the shares. Ancora Securities disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares.


All entities named herein (Ancora Group) each disclaim membership in a Group as such term is defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Rules and Regulations promulgated thereunder.


During the last five years none of the Reporting Persons have been convicted in a criminal proceeding, nor been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, as a result of which he was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.


Mr. Barone is a U.S. citizen and maintains the right to claim dual citizenship with the Republic of Italy. Mr. Barone serves on the Board of Directors in various capacities for the both public and private corporations and foundations.

  


Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration


Ancora Securities owns no Shares directly but Ancora Securities may be deemed to own (within the meaning of Rule 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) shares purchased for or transferred to the accounts of investment clients.  Ancora Securities disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares and any shares beneficially owned by Ancora Advisors or other Ancora entities.


Ancora Advisors owns no Shares directly but Ancora Advisors may be deemed to own (within the meaning of Rule 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) Shares purchased for or transferred to the accounts of investment management clients.  Ancora Advisors disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares and any shares beneficially owned by Ancora Securities other Ancora entities.


Merlin Partners, Ancora Funds, Employees of Ancora and Owners of Ancora, including Mr. Barone, have used available and uncommitted cash to purchase shares of the Issuer.


Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction


Mr. Barone and the other entities named herein acquired Shares to establish investment positions in the Issuer.  Subject to market and business conditions and other factors, Mr. Barone and other entities named herein may purchase additional Shares, maintain their present ownership of Shares or sell some or all of the Shares.


   In Mr. Barone’s opinion, the underlying private value of MACE is considerably above the current market price of its shares.  The divergence is primarily the result of operating losses in each of the past five years totaling nearly $20 million.  Additionally, management has been highly rewarded for these results, and based on the current compensation package recently approved by the Company’s Compensation Committee, a number of realistic scenarios over the next several years, any one of which could unfold, would increasingly reward the Company’s CEO even if operating losses continue or increase.


   As a result of these actions undertaken to date by MACE, Mr. Barone and the Ancora Group entities intend to "WITHOLD authority for ALL NOMINEES" on Proposal 1, Election of Directors, at Mace's annual meeting scheduled for December 8, 2006. Ancora has also noted that both leading independent proxy advisory services, Institutional Shareholder Services ("ISS") and Glass Lewis also recommended voting to WITHHOLD on certain directors.



Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer


Set forth below Mr. Barone and the other entities named herein, in the aggregate, is the number of Shares which may be deemed to be beneficially owned as of November 30, 2006, and the percentage of the Shares outstanding represented by such ownership (based on 15,275,382 shares outstanding as of November 9, 2006):
