Don Patinkin exhaustively discusses this matter in his December 1973
American Economic Review article entitled "In Search of the "Wheel of
Wealth": On the Origins of Frank Knight's Circular-Flow Diagram",
pages 1037-46.
After depicting and describing the circular flow diagrams of Simon
Newcomb (1886), Fleeming Jenkin (1887), Knut Wicksell (1901), Chiam
Dov Hurewitz (1900), Francesco Ferrara (1864), Hector Denis (1904),
Foster and Catchings (1923), M. C. Rorty (1922) -- diagrams that
Patinkin judges deficient for one reason or another -- he ultimately
awards the prize to Nicholas A. L. J. Johannsen (1908) who also
published the diagram in 1903 under the pseudonym J.J. O. Lahn.
