Not sure what it is your looking for Nushie, a gothic alphabet isn't exactly a one stroke alphabet.If you are looking for a good casual you might try looking for "Marker" It would come much closer to being a "one stroke alphabet" (if there is such a thing)there are other casual alphabets but this one came to mind first!Hope it helps...

Hey Nushie,
I am not sure if your using the proper terminlogy, one-stroke lettering is any style that is hand-painted using single stokes of a brush to for the strokes of the letter, a casual script, a loose slash style, a rounded roman are all one stroke.
A gothic letter is a style that has decrorative qualities such as Olde English.
If your looking for either one of these and just want a font that was created by sign people in the same traditions as the now close to exstinction "signwriter"

check out http://www.letterheadfonts.com/
you might find a shameless self promotion, no presure but I wouldn't mind if you picked up Boston Truckstyle, also releasing more on this site soon!

I did a "one stroke" alphabet while I was at the Panel Jam in West Munroe LA. that I use quite often on "Pit Crew"names on race cars.
Guess I could take a digital pic of it for you,and e-mail.
Hope this helps
