Private/Personal Letters
Standalone "Cartas" is referring to business correspondence, whereas, in this particular case, "Cartas Socias" is referring to private correspondence or non-business letters.
Or would say 'Private or Personal (correspondence) Letters'.
Good luck :)

Thanks. One thing that is worth pointing out, as an afterthought, is that this type of personal correspondence is/was much cheaper in terms of mailing costs when compared to standard business letters. Hence, it's not only 'Private/Personal Letters', but 'reduced-cost private letters'.
It makes no sense (to me) charging less because of content type, rather than pricing letters based on destination and weight etc... A complicated and awkward system which has been largely outmoded these days because of the dissemination of the Internet and chat programs, and the like.
Best of luck.
