Colbert Puts More Late Show and Colbert Report Memorabilia Up for Auction

As staffers continue to empty out the offices of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the show’s official eBay store continues to turn up new finds from Stephen Colbert’s 22 years in late night.

The latest batch of memorabilia from The Late Show and The Colbert Report is now up for auction, with all proceeds benefiting World Central Kitchen.

Among the new items up for bid: a blue Late Show with Stephen Colbert sign that hung backstage at the Ed Sullivan Theater, where it welcomed celebrity guests arriving for their appearances on the show.

Also on the block are several costumes and props from Colbert’s CBS run, including the alien helmet worn by Colbert and the blue jacket worn by Buzz Aldrin in the May 4, 2016 sketch “Moon Scoops With Buzz Aldrin”; Colbert’s Chicago Cubs hot dog vendor costume from his September 22, 2016 visit to Wrigley Field; and the Halloween “Boo” sweater he wore in “Halloween Wiggle,” a musical number co-starring Run the Jewels that aired October 27, 2017.

Other Late Show lots include the “Zoltar” costume worn by Colbert in an October 24, 2016 sketch featuring Tom Hanks; a giant popcorn bucket and pair of 3D glasses from the January 16, 2020 episode that produced a widely shared meme of Colbert eating popcorn; and the regulation arm-wrestling table used when Colbert faced off against John Krasinski on December 2, 2022.

The auction also includes the cardboard box labeled “Personal Space” from the recurring bit in which Tom Hanks, John Oliver, Seth Rogen, Steve Carell, Conan O’Brien, and Ricky Gervais each stuck their head inside the box to face off against Colbert.

For fans of the show’s stranger late-run artifacts, there is also the custom-made dolphin prop from the May 7, 2026 “Kids Pitch” sketch; a human-sized robot costume seen on multiple episodes and last spotted being sucked into the vortex on the May 21, 2026 series finale; and a wax figure of President Zachary Taylor from a July 14, 2017 segment featuring John Oliver.

Several items come from”The Worst of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” including a giant pepperoni pizza slice and two custom-made pigeon costumes worn by Colbert and Michael Keaton in the special’s May 18, 2026 cold open.

The latest auction wave also reaches back to Colbert’s Comedy Central years. Up for grabs is Colbert’s “Patriot Armor” Roman costume from The Colbert Report, originally seen on the June 7, 2007 episode. According to the listing, the handmade, one-of-a-kind costume has occupied a place of honor in The Late Show offices since 2015 and is autographed by Colbert.

Also from The Colbert Report: a “Muppet”-style puppet modeled after Colbert.

The latest additions continue Colbert’s post-finale charity auction run, which began last December and ultimately raised nearly $2.5 million for World Central Kitchen through a series of “Late Show Home Shopping” auctions and commemorative T-shirt sales.

By the end, fans had bid on everything from Colbert’s COVID-era desk to VIP tickets to the Late Show finale, a stolen Capitol Hill rug, one of the show’s guest chairs, Colbert’s 2017 Emmys tuxedo, a custom penny press, and the 12-foot lighted sign that hung above the Ed Sullivan Theater stage.
