Pythonistas, rejoice: here’s your chance to snag some cool schwag, including props, photos, and other memorabilia from “Python” and “Fawlty Towers”!

“Monty Python” actor John Cleese is doing everything he can to fund his pricey 2008 divorce from Alyce Faye Eichelberger.

First, the British funnyman launched a stand-up comedy “Alimony Tour,” then he moved to Monaco to skirt high tax rates and now he is selling his TV and film memorabilia to pay for his multi-million dollar split, according to the Daily Mail.

The items will be sold on the Original Memorabilia Company website and include props such as a fiberglass helmet from “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” as well as signed photographs from famous “Monty Python” and “Fawlty Towers” sketches.
