How to catch TypeError Exception in Python?

In this code, I get an error

ny = 'Statue of Liberty'
my_list = [3, 4, 5, 8, 9]
print  my_list + ny

How to handle this exception and know its type?

TypeErrors are caused by combining the wrong type of objects, or calling a function with the wrong type of object.

import sys
try :
ny = 'Statue of Liberty'
my_list = [3, 4, 5, 8, 9]
print  my_list + ny
except TypeError as e:
print e
print sys.exc_type

OUTPUT

can only concatenate list (not ""str") to list
<type 'exceptions.TypeError'>
