There was also that oddball “Flexo” records, around 1932, which I think came from the west coast. It released some items by Jack Coakley’s Orchestra, which were collected on a cd-collection once upon a time. Seem pretty rare, as I’ve never encountered a single example, unlike the “Hit of the Week” items.

I had never heard of Flexo until I read your post. The label on this one gives San Francisco as its location.

It Seems to be Spring--Jack Coakley's Orchestra (1931)

However, this Flexo disc, featuring one of the big hits from 1927, is from Mexico City.
