Oh, yes! Jack Lescoulie as "Jack Bunny," Mel Blanc as "Winchester." And of course Andy Devine has a little cameo!

One thing, though--the caricature of Phil Harris is just weird! Doesn't look or sound like him. Of course, "Winchester" doesn't even remotely resemble Eddie Anderson, either--it's a frankly offensive racial stereotype of a drawing--but at least Mel Blanc's impression is immediately recognizable as a version of Rochester's voice. "Phil's" voice is too reedy and thin by far.
