When Pee Wee goes into the magic shop right before his bike is taken, the letters that read the name of the shop on the glass door are facing the wrong way (the letters are facing inside, making it look backwards outside) [In the deleted scene "Amazing Larry" we see at the end of the scene as the door is opened that the glass is actually tinted and therefore what is on the inside of the glass would not be seen from the outside. There is actually lettering on the outside of the glass facing outward as well as the lettering facing inside that we see in the actual movie.]

Mistakes
When Pee Wee gathers everyone together in his basement to discuss his stolen bike, there's a shot of his dog Speck sitting in front of a person wearing horrible plastic pink or orange boots. It's Pee Wee's friend, Dotty. In the next shot, Dotty comes down the stairs... See more...
Trivia
Just as Pee-Wee walks into the Joke Shop at the beginning of the film (after he chains his bike to the clown), if you look to his right (our left), you will see a mini-poster of Elvira on the wall. See more...

When Pee-Wee goes to the fortune teller to find out about his stolen bike, she tells him that for $20 she can tell him a lot. He gives her only 5 bundled up one dollar bills, but she goes ahead and tells him about his bike. Why isn't she complaining that she got paid only $5 and not $20? [She isn't complaining about the five dollars because she was going to give him bad advice anyway. Five dollars is better than nothing.]
In the scene where Pee Wee is driving while Mickey is sleeping and he is passing all these signs that warn the road is going to become curvy, if you look at the bottom of the signs, you can see they are being moved on a track while the camera stays stationary. [This seems like an deliberate choice by the filmmakers, given how obvious it is, along with the fact that the entire movie is downright silly. It seems like a gag for the kids to pick up on.]
