Confederate Flag Captured by the 29th Penn.

I found this item for sale and could not find a reference to the 29th Penn. capturing any colors. They had a large number of men captured at Winchester.

"Captured Confederate Flag Stars from Battle of Winchester, Virginia 29th PA

Very Cool pair of Captured Confederate Flag Stars from the Battle of Winchester, Virginia. A wonderful ink inscription identifies each as captured from a Rebel Flag by the 29th Pennsylvania.

Each star measures 2 1/2 inches and is painted on blue silk. More research needs to be done to establish the historical framework of this wonderful Confederate artifact."
