I don't think there is any quick and easy method to do this restoration. It will require lots of time and patience.
One way would be to fix up all the paintwork in Gimp. Then convert to vector.
The other way would be to trace the design in vector graphics (Inkscape). It would need to be a manual trace as the image is too damaged for an automatic trace. This will be time consuming because of the fine detail. Also necessary to find equivalent fonts. Stencil cutting requires vector graphics so this is the way I would go.
