Of course other cartridges had tinned cases, but the subject was .30-40 cases. I know of no .30-'06 tinned cases except for the early paper bullet blanks and dummy cartridges, both tinned only for identification. In both cases, the practice had been carried over from the .30-'03.
FWIW, ".30-35" is a new one on me, also! It wouldn't even be accurate, either. The .30-'03 and .30-'06 were never loaded that lightly except for guard cartridges.
