No, the big ones are a single harmonica, they're bass harmonicas. Harmonica ensembles like that were fairly popular in the '20s, and there were all different types to cover different registers and roles.
It's interesting, but personally I prefer the "blues harp" style, with a Green Bullet mic running through a gritty guitar amp. I tried to pick it up years ago, but I was pretty much crap, so I just stick to guitar.
