Item 1. Security and Issuer
This Statement on Schedule 13D relates to the units of limited
partnership interest ("Units") of Public Storage Properties IV, Ltd., a
California limited partnership (the "Issuer"). The address of the principal
executive office of the Issuer is 600 North Brand Boulevard, Suite 300,
Glendale, California 91203-1241.
Item 2. Identity and Background
This Statement on Schedule 13D is filed on behalf of Public Storage,
Inc. (the "Reporting Person"), a California corporation formerly known as
Storage Equities, Inc. ("SEI"). On November 16, 1995, Public Storage Management,
Inc. ("PSMI"), a corporation controlled by B. Wayne Hughes and members of his
family (collectively, the "Hughes Family"), was merged (the "Merger") with and
into SEI, which then changed its name to Public Storage, Inc. Prior to the
Merger, PSMI was a subsidiary of a California corporation known as Public
Storage, Inc. ("Old PSI"). Old PSI was a wholly owned subsidiary of PSI
Holdings, Inc. ("PSH"), a California corporation owned and controlled by the
Hughes Family. Prior to the Merger, Old PSI merged with and into PSH, which was
followed by the merger of PSH with and into PSMI (collectively, the
"Restructuring"). At the time of the Merger, the Hughes Family owned more than
99% of the outstanding Common Stock of PSMI. As a result of the Merger, 12,342
Units previously reported as beneficially owned by Old PSI (the "Merger Units")
were transferred to the Reporting Person, and the Reporting Person became a
general partner of the Issuer.
The Reporting Person is a fully integrated, self-advised and self-
managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") which is engaged primarily in the
development, construction, acquisition, ownership, operation, management and
leasing of mini-warehouses. The address of the Reporting Person's principal
executive office is 600 North Brand Boulevard, Suite 300, Glendale, California
91203-1241.
Information regarding the identity and background of the Reporting
Person's directors and executive officers is set forth in Appendix A attached to
this Statement on Schedule 13D. To the knowledge of the Reporting Person, all of
its directors and executive officers are citizens of the United States except
Uri P. Harkham, who is a citizen of Australia.
During the last five years, neither the Reporting Person nor, to its
knowledge, any director, executive officer or controlling person of the
Reporting Person has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic
violations or similar misdemeanors) or has been a party to a civil proceeding of
a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of
such proceeding 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.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
At the time of the Merger, PSMI owned a significant amount of real

the Reporting Person's Common Stock (subject to post-closing adjustment),
7,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock (issuable post-closing) and assumption
of $68.0 million of PSMI debt and consolidated property debt of $4.7 million.

conditions and other factors, acquire additional Units or other securities of
the Issuer (through one or more market purchases or purchases in private
transactions) or dispose of all or a portion of the Units which the Reporting
Person now owns or hereafter may acquire.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Reporting Person beneficially owned 18,234 Units, representing 45.6% of the
class outstanding. The Reporting Person has the sole power to vote all of these
Units, has the sole power to dispose of 12,342 of these Units, and has no power
to dispose of 5,892 of these Units.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With
Respect to Securities of the Issuer
In connection with the Merger, B. Wayne Hughes granted to the Reporting
Person an option to acquire various securities and other interests owned by him,
including 5,892 Units (the "Option"). The Option expires on November 16, 1998,
and is exercisable for all (but not part) of the interests subject to the
Option. The exercise price of the Option is based on the value of the assets
subject to the Option as of November 16, 1995 (as determined by Arthur Andersen
LLP) and is payable in shares of Common Stock of the Reporting Person valued at
the higher of (i) $16 per share or (ii) a stock price necessary to cause the
acquisition to be non-dilutive based on the Reporting Person's funds from
operations per share of Common Stock (calculated in accordance with the
agreement evidencing the Option) for the four consecutive quarter preceding the
exercise of the Option. B. Wayne Hughes has agreed not to dispose of any
interests subject to the Option during the term of the Option. The Reporting
Person holds an irrevocable proxy to vote the Units subject to the Option.
Except as disclosed herein, to the knowledge of the Reporting Person,
there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships between
the Reporting Person and any person with respect to any securities of the
Issuer, including but not limited to transfer or voting of any securities of the
Issuer, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or
calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss or the giving or
withholding or proxies, or a pledge or contingency the occurrence of which would
give another person voting or investment power over securities of the Issuer.
