The part I have from the Cherry CD has the bottom C marked as a natural. I was about to say that it would be a misprint, but even with the omission of the natural in the bottom octave, it is still correct assuming that accidentals carry through the octave (which in most, if not all, cases are true).

I prefer to have my accidentals marked in. That excerpt is chock-full of em. Not worth guessing what accidentals are carrying through.

I swear I'm not post-stalking you, I'm just bored.

Luckily with Bruckner, you can pretty much listen to a recording and get the answer. Tonal and easy to hear.

Im considering buying the cherry classics, are they REALLY the real part as issued with the music in completness or someones version they put on finale?
The parts you get in the Cherry Classics are actual orchestral parts which have been scanned into Acrobat. There are some penciled markings in a few places. What's really great is that you get all of the parts for the trombones and tuba - great for section playing.

If you are interested in orchestral tuba, you should buy the Cherry Classics CD. Period.
