It's hard to tell from the pictures available exactly what your cloth looks like. If that is not a metal screen then pattern #27 might be as close as you'll come with what is currently available.

I also recommend saving the original cloth if at all possible. You'd be surprised how well you can patch small tears or blemishes from behind the cloth with a little Stitch Witchery. There are also a lot of DIY dry cleaning tips you can search for. Bottom line is I'd rather have a set with the original cloth even if it was slightly blemished, but if it is too far gone to be saved then start looking at patterns. Good luck!
