PTT Kinshasa :

 

Kinshasa is the new name for the old town of Leopoldville - the capital of what was the private(!) Congo colony of the Belgian King Leopold

 

a historical recording made by Hajo Russow in 1965 - listen here to the voice mirror of PTT Leopoldville !!
in 1971, it was Kinshasa working, but still named Congo (rb)
now the new name 'Zaire' is used in this voice mirror from Kinshasa (rb, 1973)

 

a nice historic document, this Leopoldville-QSL from the treasures of Michael Kunze (1965)
they even had a nice and detailed QSL card, here verifying an interior circuit from Kinshasa to Lubumbashi (the former Elisabathville) (rb, 1971)
the same card as above, but again reflecting the change from 'Congo' to 'Zaire' (Andy Schmid, 1973)
