Welcome to the forum ivyeyz

Precancels are well worth persuing and a lot of collectors specialize in these.

As for the Scotts Catalogue, they are great for US regular issues and possessions but, will not have the precancels listed in them because they are too specialized. There are clubs and societies dedicated to these stamps specifically.

Welcome ivyeyz!

To get a better feel for precancels, you should check out the precancel threads in the General Philatelic section.
