I seem to remember a shot of Martin's (Robert Armstrong's) head mounted on a plaque in the trophy room.
Does anyone else remember seeing this? It must have been one of the shots removed by the censors for later distributions.
Or am I imagining it? Uh-oh!

There is a head on the wall but it is not Martin's.

It is perhaps possible in the "director's cut" longer version (I'm not sure that version even exists any more), but if my memory serves then it's not in the 60+ minute version that was released by RKO.
Martin's body is carried (under a sheet) into the trophy room while Bob & Eve is inside, having just discovered the room. We know it's Martin's dead body being returned from the previous night's hunt, as Bob lifts the sheet and recognises Martin, sparking a showdown. Count Zaroff would therefore not have had the time to mount Martin's head on a plaque yet. The head you saw was probably of an earlier shipwreck/hunting victim resembling Martin's head.
Of course I could be wrong, but that's how I remember it.
