To open those old archives you need to get StuffIt Expander [1]. Once you have that installed, you'll be able to extract any .sit archives (unless they're corrupted).

Edit: If you're looking for some interesting software to run on OS 9, Macintosh Garden has Photoshop 7 [2] as well as Illustrator 7 [3]. It's extremely cool that you can get this old software for free now. Those applications are still highly capable for serious editing and design work.

You may also need to open the files from Stuffit, rather than just double-clicking, as they may have lost their type and creator codes.

You should also get Disk Copy to mount disk images.
