Cinderella (1950)

Continuity mistake: Before the animals start to sew Cinderella's dress Jack says "Cinderella might not go to the ball", then a mouse sitting on the edge of a spool of thread with a needle showing behind her cries "What?" The shot changes and she's now sitting on the center of the spool and the needle is nowhere to be seen. This changes back and forth depending on the angle.

Continuity mistake: After Cinderella picks up her dress from the trunk the mice standing on the lid change positions: From purple, yellow, blue and red, to light red, yellow and turquoise blue. Change of colour of the dresses might be due to lighting.

Continuity mistake: After the stepsisters destroy Cinderella's dress and she runs away, all the rags on the floor disappear in the aerial angle. They're not offscreen: Check the pattern of the floor and the column behind. Also, the object on the table behind her disappears too.

Continuity mistake: After throwing the bookends away, the King leans on the table and stares at the Duke. In the first shot the King's tummy lies on the table and his left hand grabs the left edge. A shot later he is half a meter away, standing by the table with both hands lying by his belly.

Deliberate mistake: The first time we see the King, the bookends and books are sketchy drawings that bear no relation to the fully detailed ones that we see afterwards.
