and do you mean the whole picture or just the letteringin the foreground.
I guess you mean the whole thing.
I'll try to make something similar and then, if i succeed, i'll tell you how i did it.
Most off the time its better to try and find an own variation, so ppl dont have the feeling you are a copy cat.

so i was wrong...
I dont know exacly how they did it.
Try this for starters and hope other members can join me to help.
1. use the "despeckle" filter: this filter looks for assemblages of similarly colored pixels and averages their colors, clumping the pixels together into a larger grain.
2. Then use the "unsharp mask" filter with ridiculous high numbers: 500 / 50 / 50.
3. and/or posterize the image with the "cutout" filter (filter > artistic > cutout) --> this one gives smoother and cleaner edges then the posterize command.
Try these out and tell me what is still wrong, we will try to improve the process!!

This is the same guy on the upper half, I just don't have the same exact image. But you can get the drift, and this is what came out of your mini tutorial there....
I'll post what I did that actually looked like I was getting it in a few minutes. I'm experimenting with one more technique.

1) Duplicate image.
2) Use the top layer --- Go to Filter>Artistic>Film Grain and use the default settings
3) Use Overlay, merge
Yeah, I told you I was new. It's the best I could come up with, but this is the result....
--------
Just fiddled some more, and I think I'm really on the path. Did the same thing, just added the Threshold, Texturizer, and different Sharpen filters.
or
Let me know if that's looking better and I'll tell everyone how I did it.

1. Open image at least 300dpi for the outline edge to look better
2.Option or alt(depending if you use mac or Win)+drag layer you wany to outline to the new layer icon to make a duplicate. Name it "color"
3. With the "color" layer active go to filter>Blur>Smart Blur
Quality- High,Mode- Normal,Radius- 67.1,Threshold-39.0 The goal is to smooth the inside of the shape while keeping crisp edges(adjust to your liking) click OK
4. Option or Alt+ drag "color" layer to the new layer button to duplicate. Name it "outline"
5.Image>Adjust>Channel Mixer
Monochrome,Red- 24,Green- 68,Blue-8,Contrast- 0
6. Filter>Stylize>Find Edges
7. Set "outline" layer mode to DARKEN
8. Create a new adjustment layer, Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Brightness/Contrast
Check "Group With Previous Layer" Click ok
9.Play around with the levels until you see something familar the click OK
If you wanted less black skip step 5 and set outline layer to Multiply
For bitmap quality outline, use the Smart Blur Filter instead or Find Edges in step 6 in Edge only mode, Then,Image>Adjust>Invert to the Outline layer and then do step 7 on.
I posted a very crappy one of myself, I choose a bad resolution so it's a bit choppy I didn't change my dpi because well,I'm to lazy to
here's how you would change that
Load your image into Adobe Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements).
Select the "Image > Image Size" menu option (may be "Image > Resize > Image Size" in Photoshop Elements).
In the image size dialog window, deselect the "Resample Image" checkbox (make sure there is no checkmark in that box).
In the "Resolution" box type in 300
Click OK
(don't change the pixel dimensions).
Save this photo with a new name so you can have your original back-up
I totally hope I didn't screw you up
