Hey Benjamin, I did a little looking around and was able to find which museum "Mother's head" from Psycho is housed in.

It's in The Musée de la Cinémathèque, (formerly known as Musée du Cinéma), 51 Rue de Bercy, 75012 Paris

http://www.cinematheque.fr/musee.html

And here's another shot/angle of her on display, for your viewing pleasure.

Cool, thanks for the update Jeff!  I haven't been to the Musee de la Cinematheque in years, I guess I'm due for a visit next time I go to Paris.  Great pic of the head too!
