Doh!  Too much Java.  (Thanks for the correction)

Ok, for the benefit of the OP here is a working example :-).

>>> import types
>>> a = 1
>>> isinstance( a , types.IntType )
1
>>> class Foo : pass
...
>>> b = Foo()
>>> isinstance( b , Foo )
1
>>> class Bar( Foo ) : pass
...
>>> c = Bar()
>>> isinstance( c , Foo )
1
