Isn't that what Holita just posted 16 of?

If you're looking for designs of the computer font named Old English,
the ones just posted as Gothic-2, Gothic-5, Gothic-9, and Gothic-14
are all very close.

BTW - although 'gothic' and 'old english' are very commonly used to
describe this kind of typestyle, it's more properly known as
'blackletter'.

'Gothic' is used to describe two absolutely opposite kinds of type! To
a typographer, Arial is an example of a gothic font!
